. ice cooling down your hand
45s - Q7
When a metal spoon with a temperature of 25°C is placed in a cup of hot water with a temperature of 95°C, how is the temperature of the two objects affected by the contact?
The temperature of the spoon increases; for hot water, it decrease
The temperature of the spoon is unaffected; for hot water, it decreases
The temperature of the spoon decreases; for hot water, it increases
The temperature of the spoon increases; for hot water, it is unaffected
45s - Q8
Why does conduction occur between objects?
Objects in contact must have different temperatures.
Objects not in contact must have the same temperature.
Objects in contact must have the same temperature
Objects not in contact must have different temperatures
45s - Q9
The tourist suite of passenger ship is air-conditioned, and your mom wants you to choose between the upper deck bed and lower deck bed. How will your knowledge of convection help you decide so that you can maximize the cool temperature?
Cool air goes down; thus, you avoid the lower deck bed
Warm air goes down; thus, you choose the upper deck bed
Warm air rises; thus, you avoid the upper deck bed
Cool air rises; thus, you choose the upper deck bed
45s - Q10
Despite the sun's distance from the Earth, it is still able to keep the Earth warm. Why is this possible?
The sun's heat is transferred through the electromagnetic waves
The sun condenses water vapor in the clouds as rain
The sun conducts heats using the plants by photosynthesis
The sun warms the particles nearest it creating convection currents
